The Dumbest Purchases Made By Athletes

John Daly

John Daly earned more than $10 million in on-course earnings alone throughout his golfing career. He’s also known for having alcohol, drug and gambling problems, and those three and money never really go well together.

His gambling addiction, in particular, cost him $1.65 million in just five hours in Vegas after he cashed in all of his golf winnings. The worst part is that he lost all of it playing slot machines! Sure, he didn’t really make a dumb purchase, but it’s not like throwing money away for nothing is any consolation.
